It's not that difficult - the bare wires go to the dynamo (connector will differ depending on dynamo type) and the USB is where you plug shit in to get charged. The newer ones have a cache battery hanging off them also.

If you’re after something simpler I have a Cinq Plug 3 for sale - £60
2 cables to the dynamo, up the steerer, usb in the top cap.
I had lots of trouble charging higher capacity battery packs due to the current draw limiter on it so it’s sat in a box doing nothing. If you wanted to try before you buy you’re welcome to give it a test for a few weeks then make your mind up.

Jeez, just trying to figure out how this thing works ... it’s so messy, all these boxes and cables going everywhere. Why do they need to be so complicated? I don’t like all the plugs and wires you have to have going everywhere.
Does anyone who’s used one know:
Will I have to chop and find a new place reconnect a light that has pre-wired input as opposed to spades on the back of the light? Or do you just ‘piggy back’ the power at the hub?
The Igaro website is terrible. No diagrammes, no really clear, visual explanation of what all the bits do.
Fuck it I’ll wait till I can afford the D2. Notable they seem to not be selling D1s any more.
